Long-term growth strategy

The Peterborough 2012 Comprehensive Transportation Plan identified a vision and long term goals for the city’s transportation system. One major goal for the transit system was to increase the share of trips being made by transit from 4.3% to 6% by 2031.

The Comprehensive Transportation Plan identified a vision for transit in Peterborough provide "an efficient, reliable, convenient and affordable form of mobility throughout the city for all users that offers an attractive alternative to the automobile."

The long-term transit growth strategy will identify key actions that the City can take to achieve its goals for transit. It will include:

• Long-term route network recommendations
• Investment requirements
• A recommended phasing plan

To identify the capital investments and operating improvements needed, the long-term transit growth strategy will test a variety of route network scenarios to identify the best options for meeting the City’s long term transit goals.
